Democracy's Tricky Radio Signal

By ROBERT WORTH

The spectrum was once considered a natural resource: students at the 
Ethical Culture School listen to a historical dramatization on ``The 
American School of the Air.''

These are dark days for local radio. The number of independent stations 
falls every year, and in December Congress all but killed a federal plan to 
license hundreds of new noncommercial low-power stations throughout the 
country.
